Oh Jen. This is so beautiful. Little gifts left only in this moment....and how often we miss them because we are focused in the past or the future. So glad you heard this from Him today.... This touched my heart so. <3

My kids (one in particular) used to drive me crazy with the amount of time he spent in the shower. And yet, I know how healing, soothing, and refreshing that time kind be, just being present to the water, the steam, the peace.

I could feel all your emotions, and it is a discipline to be in the now. Dr. Paul Conn, my college president, used to always say, "Wherever you are, be there." It has stayed with me through the years, but it's not always easy to put into practice.

If only everyone could come to this realization. One of my favorite quotations is "Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but gets you nowhere." So much better to live in the moment rather than dwelling on the past or pondering the future. To just be in the here and now is a wonderful thing and you said it beautifully. Best wishes and blessings, Tammy

This is just beautiful... It reminded me of the day I accepted the Lord. It was in the shower. I wouldn't say this to just anyone but obviously you understand that sometimes that's where the Lord quiets you down so you can hear Him! :)
